I think one cannot compare the Lagonda with the Porsche, it is has a completely different purpose.

With ELVs, desinger have far more flexibility on the car's design, as the E-motors are much smaller than the ICE. Therefore, designer go much further with the design of ELVs, especially with concepts such as the Lagonda. This does not mean that I like to new direction. We know and are used to the current design "language" for the last 100 years...it is difficult to just accept something completely new.
